    The "Howdja Do" Thread

    I'm sure you've all experienced it before. You come home from the B&M and a family member or friend asks "Howdja do?" Or, in simpler terms, "how did you do?" I thought it would be fun to be able to tell eachother how we did during trips to the B&M... what games we won on, biggest win, etc.

    I'll start

    Took $100 to the local racino on Saturday. Hit for $218 on "Merlin's Ring Quest" on a .60 bet! Won $85 on "Nefertiti" (WHICH I LOVE) and won on $67.00 on "Stinkin' Rich"

    Got absolutely killed on Wolf Run - Yikes!

    Brought $100, walked out with $100, gain of $100!

    I had a friend once that asked how I did, I said I won about $900, he said how much did you take? I said $850. He said so you came home with $1700. I said no I came home with $900, he says so you won $50 and I say no, I won $900 because I had intended to lose it all and I was down to my last 20 when it started picking up anyway.

    These non-gamblers will never get it.

    Too funny and sooo right (in a gamblers own way that is)....

    I always say it's a win win when one comes home with even half of what one took but if one comes home with all plus...then thats a winner no matter if it is a buck or two!

    It gives one another chance at the big one...don't they see this?
    Today is the Tomorrow, you thought about Yesterday...so live as IT IS your last tomorrow!

    Just got back from Atlantic City for 4 days...played alot of Top Dollar Machines ($5.00) at Ballys and the Hilton. Both times they started off slow, but after being patient and increasing my investment, both machines paid off nice.

    Also, had a good run playing Monty Carlo $1.00 machine at Ceasars. Only put in $100 and got that up to close to $1,000. Tropicana slots extremely tight both in high limit and lower limit. Played a little at Borgata and did OK on $1.00 top dollar. Overall, finally a profitable vacation and saw a show at Trop called Dancing queen. Also, there's a restaurant at Bally's called The Reserve that was very nice but bring alot of money or comps.

    Wow how true most times and plse all newbies to onland and online casinos plse rmbr more times then not plan on losing what you take or put into a casino.
    If your even or up its a blessing these days. It seems they tweak these machines to the point that not a lot hits just enough to make you want to spin a few more times. Been while for me at a land casino and now its time for saving for xmas so it will be while before i go. GOOD LUCK to all that do and keep us posted.

    LOL Debbie

    Top Dollar is my husband's favorite game and hes not even a gambler. I use to win at Caesers but its been awhile. Its been over a year since Ive won at the Hilton too

    I do well at the Trop (that's my baby). The thing with the Trop, you have to know which machines to play as this rules doesnt always apply but in this case it does. I play the same machines and Im learning that even the time makes a difference. The funny thing is the last time I went down, 2/3 of my favorite hitting machines were out of order lol. Coincidence? When they are in working order and I play at the right time, I win win win. Those 3 machines I speak of hit everytime and they are downstairs in the smoking section. One is 2 of them are triple sevens and both are 2 coin slots. one is in the round by the candy store (times 5 is cattycorner behind) and the other one is in the first row all the way to the left by hooters, its a sit down next to crystal 7's. The third one is bonus times 12 , its the 2nd machine from the aisle also downstairs.

    Triple 7's (in the round) : between 8-10am
    Triple 7's (by hooters ) : between 4-6pm
    Bonus times : 7-9am and 5pmish

    just incase you go down again. Oh...and the WOF triple 7's on the end downstairs in smoking is a good one. Dont play the brand new WOF with the 3/4 times downstairs, it will suck your money!

    I cant even count how many cashouts I have had from those 3 machines. Im going down for 2 nights in sept. Ill let you know how it goes

    that's very interesting babs...I'll have to make note of those machines because I was down there playing in that smoking section. They were some of the lower limit ones I was talking about that were tight.

    It's funny, whether I win or lose in Atlantic City, I still think land based casinos at the present time are SO MUCH better than playing online. While I used to invest alot of money online, things changed so much this year, that I very rarely deposit anymore....just don't believe the games are random at all and have been adjusted DOWNWARD.

    I feel if you go into a land based casino, there are so many options and each one of those machines are random. It's very possible to find one, like you've found a few and so did I this past weekend. Online, just about every slot is cold at every place and you don't feel there's a remote chance of hitting anything worthwhile. That's why I'd rather drive down to Harrah's Chester or AC and risk the money there. Not to mention the free hotel rooms and dinners, drinks, etc. Thinking about it, there's simply no comparison.

    Just a couple notes for everyone. First, one of my favorite casinos Used to be harrah's chester. For the first 6 months it opened in 2007, it was great. I played alot in the high limit room and actually won many times. In late 2007 until now, this casino is the absolute worst! The high limit room is always empty because it's impossible to win in there. I now rank this casino as one of the worst i know. I very rarely see anybody win in there and people don't look like they're having a good time (easy to see why)

    I just got back from AC today and played at Bally's (another total rewards casino). This casino was bad too. Lost too much in the high limit room (never even got one top dollar on that machine or anything for that matter). I truly believe these "total reward" casinos have tightened their slots to the point that they are just stealing from most of their players. I'm going to Harrahs laughlin next week and think that I'll try to find any casino there that is NOT total rewards as I find it almost impossible to win at these places anymore. It's not worth playing there just to get their "rewards" in my opinion.

    I hate Harrah's in Chester. If you check out their 2007 statement, you'll see that overall their payouts were at 91%.

    Which reminds me, I need to contact them regarding their electronic "Blackjack" machines. I have a feeling that they have these set to ~91% which would mean that you're not playing blackjack, and it's more like a slot machine. If that's the case, I'm going to ask them for all of my money back from what I've deposited in those machines. Why? False advertising. Not one place in/around those machines do they say that the payouts are what you would get from a REAL game of blackjack.

    Which would explain why I've never had ONE winning session out of about 10 down there.
    Operators: If you don't know what Transparency means, then here you go.....now how about practicing it?

    Transparency, as used in the humanities and in a social context more generally, implies openness, communication, and accountability. It is a metaphorical extension of the meaning a "transparent" object is one that can be seen through. ...
